 manveru | i think one could maybe work around that by creating all the cache directories Nix wants... but that's really hard :| | 11:56:12 |

| manveru | it definitely makes trying to write a nixos test for bootstrapping my cluster hard, but i guess i could simplify it by referencing the flake directly, copying it over, and just calling the activation script myself | 12:01:56 |

| pamplemousse | Hey all 👋 | 23:53:39 |
| pamplemousse | As part of the https://discourse.nixos.org/t/tweag-fellowship-fuzzing-nix-0/ , I am tweaking the nix build system. | 23:54:43 |
| pamplemousse | And some things are pretty mysterious...
For example, when using --prefix=outputs/out:
[pamplemousse@wasu:~/Workspace/tools/nix]$ ldd outputs/out/bin/nix-build
[...]
libnixexpr.so => /home/pamplemousse/Workspace/tools/nix/outputs/out/lib/libnixexpr.so (0x00007f1b1fe51000)
libnixmain.so => /home/pamplemousse/Workspace/tools/nix/outputs/out/lib/libnixmain.so (0x00007f1b1fafe000)
libnixfetchers.so => /home/pamplemousse/Workspace/tools/nix/outputs/out/lib/libnixfetchers.so (0x00007f1b1f735000)
libnixstore.so => /home/pamplemousse/Workspace/tools/nix/outputs/out/lib/libnixstore.so (0x00007f1b1ea89000)
libnixutil.so => /home/pamplemousse/Workspace/tools/nix/outputs/out/lib/libnixutil.so (0x00007f1b1e49b000)
libnixcmd.so => /home/pamplemousse/Workspace/tools/nix/outputs/out/lib/libnixcmd.so (0x00007f1b1e2b9000)
[...]
I don't understand how the outputs/out/lib/*.so are referenced here... (i.e. where in the .mk these are set up).

not familiar with building nix, but it looks it's fairly abstracted :)
the individual local.mk files scattered through the source get iteratively processed at https://github.com/NixOS/nix/blob/master/mk/lib.mk#L96 and then instantiated a few lines later | 03:13:13 |
| abathur | not certain if that answers the question | 03:13:28 |
| pamplemousse | Yeah, I more or less figured that.
What I am confused about is that as per mk/libraries.mk, it seems that the libraries libnix*.so are built in their respective src/lib*/, and only moved to outputs/out/ (or whatever is in --prefix) when make install (mk/lib.mk using "functions" declared in mk/install.mk).
I don't get how the final binary is linked agains't it before they are installed 😕 | 03:19:19 |
